It’s been a minute since I’ve written something here, aside from the posting of various media mediums and scraps of scribblings(the late night, right before bed kind usually). It isn’t for lack of things to say–quite the opposite, in fact. These days all of my senses are attached to the buds in the trees, the […]

I just had a dream about an incredible amount of oranges and lovers and fake driving. We were filming a movie. There were a lot of crazy speeches, nice weather, and sepia colored footage. The time: spring.

Always all at once. I’m itching to leave work, go home, and start throwing everything I own away. Cut off my hair, dropkick my phone into the hollow. Cement trucks are idling and altering the traffic pattern in my veins, the heart is burning. How much will happen? Probably none. […]

It’s 2:36am, fingers still wobbly from coffee. Of course I have more to say, but my cat is curled up to the left and eyeballing me, as in Can we please do that get warm and cuddle thing? Kind of hard to resist. Despite her current gas-maximus nature. G’night.

My folder for class tomorrow is missing completely and someone left two of the stove burners on today. Do you ever feel like something is trying to tell you to pay attention?

I’ve been having some health issues lately. Digesting food has become a chore–at least one meal a day makes me sick and leaves me doubled over in pain. Then the meal doesn’t stick around long enough to be properly digested. This has been going on for a couple weeks now. I’m […]

Hi my name is Nikki and I wish I could be more consistent with my updates here. You will just have to forgive me though. 2009 has quickly become the year of the gallop-y run, the broken pony jaunt that will quickly increase to track&field speed.
There’s a stack of anthology submissions […]
